[Intro]
G Dadd11/F# Em7 Dadd11/F# Cadd9 (x1)
[Verse 1]
G
Well now I, I'm in control
Dadd11/F#
I'm grabbing ahold of everything
Em7
If it's too much to carry
Dadd11/F# Cadd9
Afraid I don't bury myself
G
And this room, this room is too cold
Dadd11/F#
These words get so old, and their all that I have
Em7 Dadd11/F# Cadd9
You're watching each one, and I have begun to be someone else
Dadd11/F# Cadd9 C(#9)
It's not what I wanted, but that's what I needed
[Chorus]
G Dadd11/F#
When I was high, I was alone
Em7
You said you weren't sure
Cadd9
And you didn't know
Em7 Cadd9
But I won't play
Em7 Dadd11/F#
Play your game
[Verse 2]
G
You might say, I lost it all
Dadd11/F#
I take the blame, it's all my fault
Em7 Dadd11/F# Cadd9
And it's too late to lock up the gates, these words got out
G
And now it time, time to move on
Dadd11/F#
And all my old friends, I know their gone
Em7 Dadd11/F#
'Cause I made a choice of wasting my voice
Cadd9
They can hear me now
Dadd11/F#
It's not what I wanted
Cadd9 C(#9)
But that's what I needed
[Chorus]
G Dadd11/F#
When I was high, I was alone
Em7
You said you weren't sure
Cadd9
And you didn't know
Em7 Cadd9
But I won't play
Em7 Dadd11/F#
Play your game
G Dadd11/F#
When I was up, you put me down
Em7 Cadd9
Thought that you could just spin me around
Em7 Cadd9
With a move of your hand
Em7 Cadd9
You'd make me land
G
Some place new
G
Some place new
[Bridge]
Em7 Dadd11/F# Cadd9
And now it's my time to know
Em7
And everything's spinning around
Dadd11/F# Cadd9 C(#9)
Got too much to lose
[Chorus]
G Dadd11/F#
When I was high, I was alone
Em7
You said you weren't sure
Cadd9
And you didn't know
Em7 Cadd9
But I won't play
Em7 Dadd11/F#
Play your game
G Dadd11/F#
When I was up, you put me down
Em7 Cadd9
Thought that you could just spin me around
Em7 Cadd9
With a move of your hand
Em7 Cadd9
